PROTUNE

BENEFITS

Protune unlocks the camera’s full potential, yielding stunning image quality
and cinema-caliber video and photos optimized for professional productions.
Protune gives content creators more flexibility and workflow efficiency than
ever before.

Protune is compatible with professional color correction tools, GoPro Studio
(included with the Quik desktop app) and other video and photo editing
software).

Protune enables manual control of color, white balance, shutter speed, and
more for advanced control and customization of your video footage and
photos.

Protune

Protune is available as an advanced setting for supported capture modes.
The options for this setting are Off (default) and On. When Protune is on,
PT appears on the camera status screen. Protune is not available for Video
+ Photo, Looping, or Time Lapse Video.

Changes that you make to Protune settings in one capture mode apply only
to that capture mode. For example, changing the White Balance for Night
Photo does not affect that setting for Burst photos.

PROTUNE

Color

Color allows you to adjust the color profile of your video footage.

Color Setting

Resulting Color Profile

GoPro Color
(default)

Provides GoPro color-corrected profile (same great
color as when Protune is turned off).

Flat

Provides neutral color profile that can be color-
corrected to better match footage captured with
other equipment, offering more flexibility in post-
production. Due to its long curve, Flat captures more
details in shadows and highlights.

White Balance

White Balance lets you adjust the color temperature of videos and photos
to optimize for cool or warm lighting conditions. Options for this setting are
Auto (default), 3000K, 4000K, 4800K, 5500K, 6000K, 6500K, and Native.
Lower values result in warmer tones.

You can also select Native to create a minimally color-corrected file
from the image sensor that allows for more precise adjustments in
post-production.
